Popis: P50, plasma pH, red cell pH, 2,3-DPG, ATP, lactate, pyruvate, and glycolytic rate were measured before and after hemodialysis in 25 patients on chronic hemodialysis. The prehemodialysis—resting 2,3-DPG level and P50 were elevated in accordance with the degree of anemia. The resting lactate and glycolytic rate were mildly elevated. Plasma and red cell pH increased significantly with dialysis. The in vivo P50 decreased significantly, whereas the in vitro P50, 2,3-DPG, and ATP levels remained constant. The fall in the in vivo P50 can be attributed entirely to the rise in red cell pH or Bohr effect. The decrease in the in vivo P50 during hemodialysis may transiently impair tissue oxygen delivery in these patients. Marked shifts in pH, especially into the alkalemic range, should be minimized, particularly in patients undergoing frequent or prolonged hemodialysis.
